I built this about two years ago, only additions are AeroMaster decals and Eduard PE seatbelts.

It's big, it's a radial, it's got 8 fifties, a 1000lbs of bombs and best of all it's a P-47!

Can't go wrong with that! Nice job.

Really nice model, love the weathering and the overall paint-job.

Good looking bird there Turfman! What technique did you use for your chipping?

Turfman · Apr 26, 2011

Thanks guys, Myke I did salt chipping to get that look.

Nice one,sweet paintwork too.

Looks great - weathering is dead on IMO.

Sure is gonna be a tight race end of June.

Myke · Apr 28, 2011

I had a feeling it was salt chipping. I think Scott is right, the weather is dead on. Looks great!! Well done!
